MITIGATING EFFECTS OF DAMAGE TO NEURAL NETWORKS

Abstract:

Aspects of the disclosure mitigate effects of damage to neural networks (NNs) onboard a platform using a primary NN trained to perform a primary task and a repair agent trained to repair the primary NN. The repair agent performs the steps of detecting a degradation of the primary NN's ability to perform the primary task and performing a repair action to repair the primary NN. The primary task is then performed by the repaired primary NN.
